Solénopole is a great radio/web station. They have exceptional podcasts and 60 minute SolénoMixes on their site that are mixed by artists like Gaudi, Burnt Friedman and Dub Gabriel. They got in contact and wanted to do have Six Degrees do their first ever exclusive label mix. We entrusted the steady ear of blogger/designer/dj Señor Oz to go through the catalogue and put together an hour of his favorites and feature tracks that were emblematic of the eclectic roster and sounds of the label.
“I wanted to include an even balance of old and new and include a variety of genres, but still have a unified mix and expose some gems that might have gone previously un-noticed, I also pulled many remixes from recent releases. The label has always been open to letting producers re-interpret and has always put out remix albums full of quality material for many moods and vibes.” Hope you enjoy. Full tracklist below. The mix starts about 5 minutes after an introduction.
Every Thursday we post up a classic episode of the Traveler radio show hosted by Bob Duskis. This week is the Afro-Tech Traveler
